Trusted sink repair in Seddington

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

About our sink repair in Seddington

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. If you are dealing with an original basin worth saving and chips on the rim or front edge, we can help, on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

What we are called out for in Seddington

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.

10 questions to ask before you book

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Seddington. What changes the price is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

Most customers in Seddington get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Seddington: your questions answered

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Will you remove the sink?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Central Bedfordshire.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

How soon can you come?

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Repairing versus replacing in Seddington

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
